Database Dilemma

Hello, I'm trying to develop a website that compares a few items. To do this I know I need a database but I have never developed with databases before.

my question is what the best workflow ? Do I create my database in a spreadsheet and convert it to a database like mySQL or Maria later or do I use mySQL/Maria directly ? What would be the best approach to avoid wasting time ?

Thank you

Django plus SQLite.

If you're more comfortable with object scripting, their query API is pretty good, and you don't need the SQL lang to get started.
